Did you know that if you sleep on the right side, it is very beneficial for the body?
And sleeping on the left side means that you are calm and psychologically well.
Sleeping on the side has certain advantages, but also disadvantages: misaligned spine, tension in the neck, lower back, etc.
It is therefore important to choose the right mattress when you sleep on your side.
Indeed, some mattresses are more suitable for this sleeping position and avoid pain on waking.
To have a good sleep, it is necessary to check the reception of the mattress, its degree of firmness and its composition.

Which mattress to choose if you sleep on your side?
Sleeping on the side is the most popular position since about 74% of people adopt this sleeping position.
Sleeping on the side puts more strain on the hips, shoulders and neck.
The mattress you choose should therefore be rather flexible at the hips and shoulders, but without sagging.
It must also be able to quickly recover its shape when you move, because if you fall asleep on your side, you change position during the night.
To evenly distribute the pressure points in these areas, memory foam, latex or pocket spring mattresses are ideal for side sleepers.
If in addition the chosen mattress has several comfort zones, it is ideal.
To choose a memory foam mattress, prefer a high density (above 30 kg/m3) for the foam, which is a guarantee of a good lifespan and quality foam.
For a pocket spring mattress, look at the number of coils in the mattress.
The larger the number, the better the ergonomics and support.
There are at least 600 to 700 springs for a double mattress of 140 x 190 cm.
Finally, for a latex mattress, it is also necessary to ensure the density which must be at least 75 kg/m3.
Latex is a naturally breathable material that appeals to many sleepers because it has a long life and offers very good support.
It is also important to look at the firmness of the mattress, which should be chosen according to your preferences, but also your build.
Indeed, depending on your weight, you will have to choose a different level of firmness.
We recommend :
for people over 90 kg: mattress balanced to firm or very firm
for people under 90 kg: soft to balanced mattress
However, it is important to know that the sensation felt varies from person to person.
This is why many major mattress brands offer trial nights, which are necessary to get used to a new mattress.
If you are a couple and your preferences are different, you can opt for the purchase of 2 mattresses.
So everyone chooses the firmness he prefers.
